the thing i never liked about scalas is they look too 2D with the turned highlights, but all one colour they look much better. They will also have red pinstripe around the outside. Oh, and sorry about the carpet, rented house

Black wheels rock - but a word of warning - they are actually harder not easier to keep clean But thats by the by they look great without the polished highlights

thanks, the pic really doesnt do them justice. I can imagine they will be a paint to keep clean, but never mind ;D

They are looking sweet, most sets are unloved and fitted to grubby white Sciroccos!

how much did they cost to get done if you don't mind me asking ? i've got a set of Castelettes and a set of mk1 GTi 9 spokes that i'm thinking of getting done for my mk3 GT and mk2 coupe S.

for 14" wheels £20 just to blast £30 to blast and powder coat £20 just to polish
If powdercoating though you have to pay vat, so they cost £141 to refurb.
